I have been trying to find a way around the following:
I am using a library functor to solve the root of a non linear equation. It passes two doubles and the name of a function that contains the equation to be solved.

Its xtor and operator are

RootFind(double tL,double tR,double (*fn)(double t));

void operator()(double tL,doubleR,double (*fn)(double t));

I want to be able to send another variable to function fn; I don't know what the value of the variable will be ahead of time.
How do I get the library functor to take an extra variable in the function passed?

Thanks,
T.

If the function takes one argument, then you need to change it or add another set of functions to handle 2 arguments. There is no way around it.
